This is a proceeding in injunction, in which W.A. Wheeler, appellant, sought to restrain T.R. Gray and the officers of the County Court of Wilbarger County from the collection of a judgment for $38.06. This judgment Gray had recovered from Wheeler in a Justice Court, and again, on appeal, in the County Court.
This appeal is from the judgment of the District Court, dissolving the injunction and dismissing the suit.
Appellant, in his brief, refers to three assignments of error. As he sets out, however, but one of these (the first), we ignore the remaining two. Chappel v. Railway, 75 Tex. 82.
The assignment set out is to the effect, that "the court erred in dissolving the injunction on the motion of defendant, because the answer of defendant was insufficient to repel and overcome the allegations in the petition." We overrule this assignment. *Page 13
The plaintiff's ground for injunction rests primarily upon an indebtedness of $904, alleged to be due him by the defendant. The answer specifically denied the existence of such an indebtedness, and intelligently averred facts excluding the possibility thereof. Indeed, the petition of the plaintiff was, we think, subject to the general demurrer with which the defendant assailed it.
The alleged indebtedness grew out of a partnership for the buying and selling of meat, existing from December, 1890, to February 17, 1891, between the plaintiff and defendant. The inference from the averments of the petition is quite strong that all the partnership transactions, including those giving rise to the indebtedness claimed, were fully settled between the parties about February 17, 1891; that Gray, in settlement of these transactions, executed his note to Wheeler for $51.15, and that this note was itself litigated as an offset by Wheeler in the suit which resulted in the judgment sought to be enjoined. The petition for injunction does not seem to meet the requirements of article 2876, Revised Statutes, that it shall contain "a plain and intelligible statement of the grounds for such relief."
The judgment is affirmed.
Affirmed.
